The Country Club RINOS have nothing but contempt for the conservatives and Tea Party people. The RINO leadership knows it will be right back in power come January, even if Republicans control both Houses of Congress and the Presidency. Elect more conservatives is the outcry. Please! Many of these newly minted conservatives who depend upon Tea Party votes will sell out on many issues soon after elected, just like many Freshmen have done since the 2010 Congressional elections.

The leadership only needs our votes for the election, after that they respond to their corporate interests. Politicians don’t run to serve the people. They run to build their personal power, their personal fortune, and to take care of their cronies.

Unfortunately, Tea Party members generally are such extreme ideologues in their concern of federal government power that their failure to create a strong in your face platform, like positions on the reinstatement of Glass-Steagall; their failure to end derivative trading, or at least see that absolutely no pensions funds can be put at risk in these casino gambling trades, and no government guarantees at tax payers’ expense be provided when they fail; their failure to introduce and support an amendment that makes Congress subject to every law and program that the American people are subjected to; their failure to seriously introduce and support some type of flat tax; and their failure to support a balance budget amendment makes the entire Tea Party a farce. Politicians won’t seriously support such a program, because it kills the mother’s milk of why people become politicians in the first place.

It is also the above failures in positioning, that is making this a close election. The Republicans should be winning this election in the biggest landslide victory of all time. Their failure to seriously support such issues, only plays into the fears of the American voter that the G.O.P. is only out to support the “Fat Cats”.

The Tea Party members blew it when they did not go third party after the 2008 election. If Tea Party views could not attract a plurality of voters over the Democratic and Republican candidates to win most races, then that was an admission that a grossly insufficient number of Americans share the Tea Party values and positions on issues.

The Tea Party movement increasingly appears to be like the Populist movement of William Jennings Bryan over a century ago. A movement that supported issues of nervous farmers who saw their agrarian ways coming to pass, and were attempting to prevent the changes that were upending their values and way of life. Both these characters, Obama and Romney will continue to support policies that will continue to undermine American sovereignty, even if each candidate may have different ideas on how and with whom that New World Order will transpire.

It’s no wonder that Progressives can’t understand why Tea Party folk continue to support policies that undermine their own well-being. That is what happens, when any group takes extreme ideological positions. The challenge should be: No more crony capitalism. No more casino capitalism. Let’s get back to a free enterprise system. Only the federal government has the power to break-up the large corporations, force more competition, and let corporations stand and fall on their own incompetence and malfesance. That in my opinion is how federal power should be used.

Even President Reagan, raised taxes when he needed to, broke up the Ma Bell’s, which made them more competitive and brought down telephone prices. (When has been the last time any Republican President enforced ant-trust laws, when instead merger mania has been the vogue, and “to big to fail” has been the mantra.)

Reagan deregulated natural gas and saw prices drop 30% to the consumer’s benefit, when left wing economist were screaming that deregulation was for the benefit of the companies and would cause natural gas prices to rise 300%.

Reagan took on the air controller’s union, and stopped the continual out-of-control salary and benefit increases that were the hallmark of Union negotiations over the previous three decades.

Reagan further let United Airlines file for bankruptcy and reorganize itself and renegotiate its contracts with the Unions. Guess what, United is still in business today. I can fly from Chicago to New York today for the same price it cost me in the 1970′s. Otherwise, air travel today would cost Americans four to five times the inflation rate from the mid’70′s, which is what we would have with the Obama-type of intervention that sticks the tax payers with the increasingly burgeoning debt, while protecting Union intransigence.

Of course, none of the above proposals while bantered around by some well meaning conservatives will be a part of the Republican platform, and if by chance even one or two of them are slipped into the platform to ameliorate people like Ron Paul, these planks will then be summarily ignored.

When an election boils down to Romney being the lesser of two evils, and the Tea Party energy is galvanized in little else than to get him elected and gain control of the Senate. There will be a great deal of conservatives who will be very disappointed when such pyrrhic victories produce broken dreams and promises. Mitch McConnel is a greater threat to the middle class and the conservative cause than Obama could ever be. Nothing is worse than a wolf in sheep’s clothing, and a fox in the hen house.

Some Republicans argue that Roberts has handed them a strategic victory by firing up the Republican base, but here we have Romney and McConnel throwing water on that enthusiasm and strategy. How much these RINO’s love emasculating the Tea Party people.

Why are all these billions of dollars being spent by conservatives in this election; to maintain the corporate status quo and to maintain their puppets like the current Republican leadership in place, or are those billions being spent with no forethought to target the leadership and make sure they go down in flames before the next Congressional session?
